Fascinating and Creepy

Google's ads, that is.

Google has figured out I'm into model railroads. No surprise there.

So at the top of my Gmail in-box is an ad that says:
"Model Railroad - TheFutureNeedsUs.com - The Crescent Corridor Means More Jobs & Cleaner Air. Learn More."

Here's where it leads: an ad for the Norfolk Southern Ry. The real-life one, not a model.
